Effects on schooling
Recent studies suggest allergies can take their toll in the classroom, affecting everyday performance and impacting exam results:
► 4 out of 10 parents said their child’s allergies interfered with school work.
► Students with allergy symptoms on the day of their exam were 40% more likely to drop a grade between their practice and final exams when compared with their fellow students.
► That figure rose to 70% if on the day of the exam the student took allergy treatments containing sedating antihistamines that cause drowsiness.
